4Christian-filled way to open the lines of communication  Jan 27, 1999
Though the first two chapters are filled with spiritual advice, the personality and spending surveys are eye-opening. If you're looking for spiritual guidance as well as financial advice, this is a book for you. However, if you just want to get down to the nitty gritty of how you can cut costs, and live comfortably you might want to look into a more personal finance type of book.

5Really helpful!  Jan 06, 2003
This is a great book! My now-husband and I bought two copies and went through it during the months before we got married, and it was really helpful in showing us how to put together our first budget. Even more than that, we learned a lot about each other (and this is after four years of dating) and about how we each deal with money. I'm sure those lessons will help us throughout our marriage as we deal with new financial circumstances and situations. I would recommend this book to any Christian couple planning for marriage.

3It is not what I expected...  Jun 30, 2001
I had very high expectations for this book, and, truthfully they were not met. Although it is a "workbook" and helpful in that way, I did not find the actual chapters helpful. As a psych major in college, I had access to similar "quizes," however it was helpful to compare my fiance and myself, which I did not have the opportunity to do in college. Plain and simple: it is cheeper than taking a course in Psych of Personality, or having a psychologist administer a psychological inventory, but if you have experienced something like this in the past, don't waste your money... Oh yah, one more thing.... If you are not religious, and don't want a book that discusses God's view of money, this is, again, not the book for you.


5If you only choose one resource to help couples, this is it!  Jan 16, 2009 By M. J. Cook
This book includes personality tests, communication and conflict tips, as well as a step by step approach to creating a budget. It also logically explains why we budget and prepare for the future. This book is logical, strategic, and very useful for young couples who are just figuring out the importance of the dollar.

Great tool for pastors, young couples wanting to prep, and councilors. This is a good tool for all adults; newly married or veterans.
